Win Willie!


I thought of titling this "Win My Willie!" but that was too sophomoric even for me.

Anyhow, Rounder Records has provided me with 2 copies of Willie Nelson's new album Country Music to give away to a couple of you fine folks.

Here's the album description:
Willie Nelson goes back to his roots with a songbook of classic Americana. Country Music was recorded in Nashville, TN and produced by T Bone Burnett. Nelson wrote one track on the album, "Man With The Blues" and, with T Bone Burnett, co-arranged three traditional songs, "Satan Your Kingdom Must Come Down," "I Am A Pilgrim," and "Nobody's Fault But Mine." The album also features many popular old-time/bluegrass/folk songs including Ernest Tubb's "Seaman's Blues, Merle Travis' "Dark As A Dungeon," and Doc Watson's "Freight Train Boogie". Willie Nelson collaborated with many musicians on Country Music including old-time banjo master Riley Baugus, double bassist Dennis Crouch, and T Bone himself, all musicians featured on Raising Sand, the 2009 Grammy® award-winning Album of the Year by Robert Plant and Alison Krauss.

So how can you win? Just tell me a joke. In the comments of this post, on the Facebook "fan page" or on Twitter, give me your favorite joke or one-liner about country music or music in general. Steal it, make it up, Google it... just make me laugh. The best two jokesters win a copy of the album! It's that simple. You entertain me, you win my Willie! (sorry)

  1. Did you hear that Willie got hit by a bus? He was singing on the road, again.
    (best part of joke: it involves Willie but not a pun on his name)

  4. Person #1: Did you know that Wille was busted not long ago for possession of Marijuana?
    Person #2: No, that's almost as shocking as the time they found a metric ton of ice cream in Wynonna's freezer.
